Starring Ajay Devgn and Tabu in the lead roles, the action thriller Bholaa has been released in the theatres on March 30 on the occasion of Ram Navami. Also produced and directed by Ajay, the film also stars Deepak Dobriyal, Sanjay Mishra, and Gajraj Rao in pivotal roles.
It is the Hindi remake of the 2019 Tamil superhit Kaithi, which starred Karthi and was written and directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj.

Bholaa has received overwhelmingly positive reviews from moviegoers, who have shared their reviews on the micro-blogging platform Twitter. One user wrote, "#Bholaa shines in terms of emotion & great action. Full on paisa wasool massy entertainment. #Tabu & #DeepakDobriyal delivered a clap-worthy performance.
